A far cry from her past roles - (who could forget Secretary!) Maggie Gyllenhaal hit the premiere of her new family film, Nanny McPhee Returns in New York. Looking stunning in a black Lanvin one-shouldered gown, Maggie finished her look with a pair of on trend patent nude heels to complete the perfect understated red carpet look.

And not to be outshone in the dress department, Emma Thompson showed off her fab figure in a LBD and metallic peeptoe heels. The iconic British actress had recently been honoured by getting her name in the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Supporting the two leading ladies at the premiere was Maggie’s hubby An Education star Peter Sarsgaard, who looked suave in a pair of Wave-Farers.

Co-starring a whole host of British talent – including Rhys Ifans, Ewan McGregor, Maggie Smith and Ralph Fiennes, Nanny McPhee Returns – or Nanny McPhee and the Big Bang as it’s known in the UK, is already out on DVD – so there’s no excuse not to see it!
